The House of Representatives ratifies the MCC Nepal Compact with what it calls an ''interpretative declaration.'' In nearly 20 years since its inception, MCC compacts help alleviate poverty around the world by forming partnerships with developing countries committed to economic freedom, investing in their citizens, and good governance, including promoting democratic principles and combating corruption. The Government of Nepal signs the MCC agreement in 2017 after determining its goals to modernize Nepal's energy and transportation sectors with the hope of helping more than 23 million Nepali.

A cardboardreads 'Dictatorship isn't a Republican principle'. Thousands protesters marched again against the 'Global Security Law' bill promoted by French President Macron and his majority and for more means for the public health system and hospitals. The 'Global Security Law' bill will forbid anyone to photograph or film police members if not flouted : transgressors could be condemned up to one year in jail and a €45.000 fine. The bill also plans to generalize facial recognition in pubic spaces as in China. The French Rights Defender, the French National Commission on Human Rights (administrative bodies) and the UN Human Rights body condemn the bill as it will be a violation of internationals treaties signed and ratified by France, the Universal Human Rights Declaration, rule of law, etc. They fear a chilling effect on people wanting to use their right to protest, right to personal privacy... and on journalists, photographers, videographers.
